Hear My Name

by

Van Helden, Armand

Edit

This is one of my favorite singles so far this year. This is the latest single for remixer /dj Armand Van Helden and this track comes off as a New Wave dance track. The basis for the song is 2004 Electronica music but the feel vocally is one of 1980's dead pan style that reminds me of the stylings of The Flirts and Vanity while in the Vanity 6 girl group. Childhood memories!!!!!

The mixes are all electro in vibe with the Serge Santiago mix being the most straight ahead house mix. All great mixes.

1- Radio Edit (3:27)

2- Original Club Mix (7:49)- best mix

3- Serge Santiago Remix (9:10)

4- Solid Groove Hear My Rub Mix (6:15)

5- Solid Groove Hear My Dub Mix (5:55)

Excellent vocals from Spalding Rockwell.

It stinks that I have to give this such a low rating, but the remixes on this single suffer from a serious lack of likeability...the radio edit and the original mix are the only two tracks on here worth owning. I was not impressed by the slow moving near lifeless Sergio Santiago mix, nor the trying-to-hard to make nothing happen tracks from Solid Groove...so long as you are just buying this for the originals, you won't be disappointed...They are great! However, if you are looking for some good remixes of this track...keep on looking because they aren't on this one.
